Well it looks like the new record ISN'T going to ever see the light of day 'cause the fucking thing is cursed.

Firstly the Blake / Bowie collaboration has been pulled due to the untimely death of the MAN. Apparently his estate said the song on the album would be an 'affront' to the memory of Ziggy Stardust. They were only too happy to include Blake's co-compostion on Black Star. Pricks.

Then George Martin carking it has caused a bit of a stir as he was in the middle mastering the fucking thing. They had to draught-in Steve Albini to finish it off and he's deconstructed the fucker and got the guys to re-record every guitar track using only Travis Beans.

The latest blow is the death of Ronnie Corbett - a little know fact but he was actually Gerry's daddy and Gerry is obviously too distraught to help out and is spending every day at the chapel lighting fork handles.

Not a believable play, but appreciate the creative attempt. Not much real action on this board of late. But I can already hear Gerry's four gems, one relegated to the B side of a single. Hey, great flutes!
